The V16-GFS brought freezing rain much further south for the Monday night / Tuesday morning time frame in the CAD regions. The new version has double the vertical resolution so it should handle CAD much better than the current GFS.View attachment 74036

According to this, my backyard is ice and front yard is rain. #winning
 
I am shook lol

Increasing forcing for ascent, along with a sufficiently deep
cold air will lead to all precipitation to fall as snow as we move
into Sunday evening and Monday morning. Heavy snowfall appears
likely during this time period, with widespread snow amounts of
2"-5" across Central and 3-7" inches across North Texas. In
addition to the snow, winds in excess of 25-30 mph could lead to
borderline blizzard conditions during the early Monday morning
hours.

I think its safe to say Dallas will be shut down from Monday to at least Thursday.

The power of the once in 10 year extreme -AO! They almost always lead to extreme cold in parts of the US.
 
So...the WRF is doing some weird bleep.#MesoscalesOnly

I’m in Tuscaloosa too, any chance you think this system could shift further southeast so our front and backyards are snow/ice?

Honestly I think we are right on the border for freezing rain (not much) but it only takes a little to cause havoc. You just never know with these shallow arctic air masses. I definitely would keep a close eye on the forecasts over the weekend.

Oh for sure. Still four days out. The euro busted warm with today’s temps . For areas like yours you only need a degree or two and you have big problems

So for the people staying in Tuscaloosa and western parts of central Alabama is this the case where as we need to pay attention to the weather or is this just to early to know if this is just going to be a cold rain?

Both, but looks like it will be much worse North and West.

Has Dallas ever been under a Blizzard Warning or experienced actual blizzard conditions?

I despise the heat and humidity of summer and spring but at this point, just 'effin bring it already. I'd rather be tracking storms than watching a historic winter storm to our west. Don't get me wrong, I am happy for those folks. But good god, Charlotte and the majority of the Carolina's have been in a snow drought for what? 3-4 years now? I don't think I can even remember a time when TX, LA, and western TN cash in while we get nada. It's painful and downright pathetic. To think less than a week ago we thought we had a board-wide snowstorm on our hands. I should have known better. All LR modeling is useless. Even mid-range is. This really sucks. It almost makes me depressed.
